2nd Anniversary!

Today is the two month anniversary of my first date with Jen!  And I forgot all about it today . . . which means we really are a real couple!

We’ve had ups and downs.  Towards the end of our first month together, there were some serious questions about if we would last.  Now, at the end of two months together, we’re making plans months ahead.  I guess that means we’re on an upswing!

And she still hasn’t admitted to being in love with me.  Uh huh.

Jen and I met at a party.  This was in mid-January, a month from when Leah had left.  With the holidays gone, I decided it was time to be social again.  Jen was sitting at a bar: I walked over and we started chatting.  We chatted a good bit.  Eventually, we parted company: I was hungry so I ordered some food, and she went off with some of her friends.  Before leaving, however, she gave me her contact information.

That led to us chatting a bit that next week.  I didn’t know how to read her: we were consistently exchanging e-mails, but I didn’t know if she actually liked me.  Eventually, she mentioned that she was going to be in Pennsylvania that next week . . . would I like to get together?  I said sure, and started referring to it as a “date”.  She responded well to that.  So . . . we had a date!

Much to my surprise, many of my friends were watching my Facebook posts about this.  People were enthusiastic.  After the date, a bunch of people were asking me “how did it go?”  I didn’t think my love life was that interesting to people.

And it went very, very well!

Jen and I chat on the phone almost every night.  It’s no tragedy if we miss a night here or there, but it is something we look forward to.  Most of the time, she comes down to Pennsylvania, but three times already I’ve headed up to New York City to spend time with her.  Heck, one of those times I even drove!  Our intimate time is great: she has so much energy and our bodies fit together ever so nicely.  As much as I love spending intimate time with her, I think the best part of our time together is when we are out.  She is far too exciting, to me, to keep her hidden away in a dark room. 

I try to not be negative.  I thought I had something special with my last two girlfriends, until the day it ended.  I am nuts about Jen and I keep trying to stop myself from thinking “this won’t last forever”.
